Overlooks lake Wakatipu, with stunning views.

Lovely sized unit with 2 separate bedrooms. Friendly check in guy, all very straightforward. Unfortunately the room is tired and needs a major redecorate. Has the feel of being run on a shoestring with little being spent on keeping the place nice.

Such a shame, it could be so good.

We arrived to find our room extremely dirty and in a poor state of repair, so requested to move to a different room. The second room was marginally better but still disgustingly unclean. The overall impression was that the demand for accommodation is so high in Queenstown, that the management are getting away with the absolute minimum and resting on the constant flow of business without a care for any repeat business. The general level of cleaning was the worst I have ever experienced and the maintenance appeared non-existent. We had at least 10 light bulbs that were blown in our apartment and a lampshade that was ripped and broken, but covered in dust, suggesting that it had been in that condition for months. We also had missing plugs in the sink amongst other disappointments. I raised all of this with the management who didn't seem to know how to respond, let alone do anything about it. Avoid unless you really cant get a room anywhere else.

Luxury on the lake

Even though 23 The Point was one of the smaller units, and the most distant from the lakeside, it still had absolutely world-class views of the mountains and the lake. The spacious rooms were furnished with high quality leather sofas and armchairs with built-in footrests, there was plenty of storage space and the beds were comfortable. Because the apartments are right on the lakeside, it only takes 6 minutes on a bicycle to get to the centre of town (Fergburger!), along the relatively flat Frankton Track - you can walk there in 20 minutes. It's also the right side of town for easy access to the airport and the ski-slopes, plus the swimming pool and the shopping centre. The General Manager Craig and his wife Aviva were charming and extremely helpful, to the point where I am really looking forward to seeing them and their family when we return for our next visit - I'll definitely be back - why would we go anywhere else?

Disappointing studio accommodation

A very small poorly laid out studio which did not reflect value for money. Possibly was originally a garage/store room converted to secure further revenue.

Stunning views

The apartment was clean and of high standard. The living space was excellent lots of space. The view from the windows and balcony were stunning. Yes, the driveway is steep but, everything else makes up for that.Well stocked kitchen. Some reviewers complain about having same towels all stay, we had a washer and dryer so, wash them if you neeed to, I liked the fact nobody was coming into my space when I wasn't thre.

Breakfree is on the lake/you can access the jetty. Lots of space if staying with a family. Very steep parking / hard to exit on a main road but you can do it! loved having kitchen. Our washing machine/dryer did not work but had assistance but on return had to wash everything again. No walking distance food options but you do have your own kitchen

Unfortunately will not be returning or able to recommend this property, we stayed in apartment 23 from dirty rooms with dust on the walls, hairs on sheets, musty smell in lounge from water on the bottom of windows. The bathroom just stunk. Truly shameful as tried to speak on check out but was instructed just to leave the key on the desk.
